Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 24-21 loss to the Commanders on Monday:
Hero
Jayden Daniels remained unbeaten in five career games against the Giants as he overcame two fourth-quarter interceptions to throw his third touchdown pass for the lead in the final minute.
Zero
All-Pro punter Jordan Stout shanked a 12-yard punt to set up the game-winning touchdown drive.
Unsung hero
New Jersey native Rasul Douglas came down with the game-clinching interception on a 50-50 ball against Malik Nabers before the Giants could get into range for the potential tying field goal.
Key stat
6: Giants drives that crossed midfield but ended without points scored.
Quote
“Embarrassing.”
— Left tackle Andrew Thomas on the Giants’ inability to run out the clock with two opportunities in the four-minute offense after their defense forced turnovers.
